Limestone is a premium choice for patios and pathways, offering a clean, timeless look with excellent slip resistance when specified correctly. We install limestone paving across DA1 and DA2, including projects near Bluewater Shopping Centre and around Greenhithe. Whether you want a calm grey terrace for outdoor dining or a lighter cream finish to brighten a shaded garden, we’ll tailor the layout to your space. Expect crisp cuts, neat jointing and a surface that feels as good as it looks.
Dartford’s mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments means no two gardens have the same levels, access or drainage needs. We’re used to working with narrower side passages in Wilmington and more open plots around Stone and Swanscombe. Our team designs paving that complements brickwork, render and modern cladding, so the patio looks like it belongs. We also plan practical details such as step heights, thresholds and routes to sheds and bins.
Our process starts with a site visit to measure, check levels and discuss how you’ll use the space. We build a proper sub-base, lay limestone on a suitable bed, and finish with careful pointing for a tidy, long-lasting result. Sealing is available to help reduce staining and make cleaning simpler, especially around BBQ and dining areas. Homeowners choose us for clear communication, respectful working practices and workmanship backed by a 10-year warranty.
In the limestone paving Dartford area, we often encounter mixed ground conditions and gardens that need careful falls to manage surface water. Access can be tight in older streets, so we plan deliveries, waste removal and parking to keep disruption down. We also factor in nearby transport routes such as the Dartford Crossing when scheduling. For limestone paving in Dartford Borough, we build sub-bases to match the site and the intended use, from quiet patios to busy family gardens.

For Limestone Paving in Dartford, expect around £90–£160 per square metre depending on stone choice, finish, cuts and site preparation. Typical projects in Dartford sit roughly between £3,500 and £8,000 for a well-built patio, including excavation, sub-base, bedding and pointing. Costs can rise with difficult access, significant level changes, drainage work, or premium honed limestone and sealing.
Most limestone paving jobs take 3–5 days, depending on the patio size and complexity. Straightforward replacements on good ground can be quicker, while new builds often need more excavation, sub-base work and careful levelling. Weather, access for materials, steps or retaining edges, and detailed cutting around manholes or existing features can also extend the schedule. We’ll confirm a realistic programme after the site visit.
In many cases, a garden patio is permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission. However, rules can change if you’re altering levels significantly, affecting drainage, working near boundaries, or your property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag potential issues during the survey and can advise on best practice for water run-off and any checks that may be needed for Dartford Borough requirements.
Yes. Our limestone paving installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including issues such as lifting caused by incorrect sub-base construction or poor laying practices. It’s designed to give homeowners confidence that the patio has been built properly from the ground up. The warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, misuse, or staining from spills, but we can advise on sealing and maintenance to minimise those risks.
We supply and install blue limestone, grey limestone and cream limestone, with finishes such as tumbled (for a softer, aged look) or honed (for a smoother, contemporary feel). We’ll help you choose the right tone to suit your brickwork and garden planting, and we can recommend laying patterns and edging details. Sealing is available to help protect against everyday marks and make cleaning easier.
